running through space, though so many
fires are blazing down in its timbers, and
so many mock terrors have threatened to
dash it to pieces. AS soon as the earth
is completed Christ

divide it now is because it is not done. 4

such things! Having sold out to the devil,
why don't you deliver the goods and go
over to him publicly, body, mind, aud

But at last the tide has turned, and the
despisers of purity overdid the matter

but the remaining decency Ct our cities
rose up and cancelled the contracts, and
drove her back from our American
stage, woman lit for neither continent.
In the name of Almighty God l take these
denominations by the throat. If you
think these offenses are to go on forever,
you do not know who the Lord is. God
will not wait for the day of judgment.
All these palaces OF sin viii become
palaces of righteousness. They will
come into the possession Of those strong

shall divide he spoil with the strong"
China and Africa, the two richest pr
tons OF the earth by reason OF metals
and rare woods, and ineXaaus.ible pro-
ductiveness, are not yet divided up
among the good because they are not
ready 10 be divided. Wait till al the
doors that Livingston opened in Africa
shall be entered, and Bishop Taylor with
his band of self-supporging missionaries
have done their work, ana The Ashautees
and Seuegambians shall know Christ as
well S you know him, and there shall be
on the banks of the Nile and the Niger
high2r civilization than is now to be
found on the banks OF the Hudson, then
Christ will divide up tnat continen.
among his friends. Wait Until Cains, !
which is half as large as ali Europe, |
shall have developed her capacities Tor |
rice. and tea, and sugar, among |
edibles; and her amethyst, and sapphire, |
and topaz, and opal, and jasper, and por- !
phyry among precious stones; and her !
rose wood, and ebony and camphor, and |
varnish trees among precious woods; and |
turned up from her epths & half dozen |
of coal and iron, and |
twenty Nev2das Of silver, and fifty Cali
fornias of gold, and 500, 100000 of peo-
pie shall be evangelical, then the
Lord will divide it up among the good.
If my text be not deception, but the
eternal truth, then the time is coming
when all the farms will be owned

commanded by Christian captains, and
all the universities under the instruction
Of Christian professors; Christian kings,
